Each stable differs from the other, so choose wisely and never forget, loyalty is everything... Meanwhile as the stables battle it out, there's trouble brewing at the university. Be careful, if you don't pick a side you may get caught in the cross-fire...

It was only when she cleaned Sailor when Kendra realized that the gelding had thrown a shoe. They had enjoyed their Fall trail ride, attempting to ride outside as much as they could before the change of seasons. She let out a sigh, it happened to every rider eventually.
The blonde finished dealing with Sailor, putting him back outside in the gelding's pasture before she headed on foot. She sent Chase a text, asking if he had time to put it back on as she continued on. Not knowing exactly where the liver chestnut lost his shoe made things difficult. The last thing she wanted though was to have an animal or another human step on it by accident and hurt themselves. The leaves crunched under her riding boots at the trail head and very quickly a silver object caught her eye. She headed over and picked it up off the ground. It was just a coin, which she stuck in her back pocket.
As she continued along, she heard a branch crunch behind her. The blonde turned around, wildly glancing to see where her company was coming from. "Hello? Anyone there?" The trails were usually quiet in the mornings, but Kendra was always careful wherever she went.
his was the one thing that Zayn Blake absolutely hated about being a street kid and going on his own: the lack of money. He had actually tried to get himself a job until too many questions came up. The big one: where do you live, since apparently, an address is needed for a paycheck, which he can't give, since the teenager lived in a broken down voltswagon bus near the beach. Unfortunately though, Zayn still needed money, and if there was one thing he was good at, it was pickpocketing.
It was sorta sad to think about it, but he told himself it was better than the methods that the Hickstead gang participated in: armed robbery. No, him snatching a wallet wasn't going to kill anyone, only cause them the annoyance of replacing credit cards and ID's, which was silly really, given that Zayn only ever needed the cash. What did feel dumb though, was the fact the fact that he was stalking the trails. The young male didn't care for pickpocketing out here, it was too open and there wasn't enough crowds to blend into, only the trees, but he had no choice. Hickstead Police seemed to be patrolling a bit more in town lately, probably because Fall brought tourists, the best kind of target, and unfortunately, he had too close of a call last time.
Movement caught his eye though now, as she saw a woman walking through the trails now, looking for something. Deep brown eyes caught what it was: a horse shoe. Perfect. She'd already be distracted. He readied himself, bracing for the thrill as she bent over to pick it up. A stupid deer snapped some of the branches, causing the woman to snap up now but Zayn was already committed as he darted forward now, swift as said deer and sly as the fox. Unfortunately though, the woman appeared to have a sixth sense as he felt fingers, and quite strong fingers, clamp down on his wrists just as he managed to get a hold of her wallet, "Uh...good morning...fine day for a walk, right?" He said nervously, but in the back of his mind, Zayn knew he was good as dead.
It was almost as if her police instincts kicked in. Her hand was around the perp's wrist before standing up and turning around - causing the wrist to twist. Her intent was not to break it, but to cause some pain. "Give me my wallet back, then we can talk." The horse shoe in her other hand dropped on the ground with a light thud. Right now she was more focused on her safety.
She glanced at the person now. He seemed younger than what she expected. The dark eyes and longer shaggy hair made her wonder if he looked familiar to her. The blonde kept calm before her next comment. "Or are you going to tell me that grabbing my wallet was by pure accident?" She was using her bad cop voice now. The teen didn't seem to have weapons, but he needed to be respectful of her.
Kendra slightly loosened her grip on his wrist once it started to turn white. Her team would be proud of her - using her self defense skills away from work.
